What Is The Best Way to Combine 2 Tires???

[Benjamin Kieren]

Basically what I did was take two tires and strapped them together to create one Huge Tire. Not sure how much it weighs, but its heavy as hell. Im not sure what they're called, so I'll call them truck straps. So I used 4 truck straps to secure the tires together. The only problem is: the tires keep moving and shifting around when I try to flip it. Sometimes the straps will come off. Should I use rope??? Or should I somehow nail them together? Opinions? Thanks guys.

You might be able to use bolts and washers. Drill multiple holes in each and put large, fender, washers on both sides. Though, since tires are free, if you can find one locally that would be cheaper/easier...

Get a bigger tire..

I'd say bolts and washers as well, lots of them.

What would happen if you just stood it up. Then let it fall back, Instead of doing a full flip.

If they stay together like that it should be good enough.

I wish I could find a bigger tire, but the big ones are hard to come by, at least from my experience. I can get a hold of the 5 hundred pound tires easily, they seem to be all over. But its hard to find tires that are around 800 lbs or more. I live in Wisconsin, you'd think it would easy to find a big one with all the farms around, but I haven't seen any.

Looks like I will just try the bolts. Thanks guys!!!
